Purpose. Transmission of malignant tumour cells to a bone graft donor site is a rare complication of bone grafting.We report a case of seeding of malignant fibrous histiocytoma from the femur to a pelvic bone graft donor site. Discussion. We review the literature, discuss the possible mechanism of t...
